SCADA in Renewable Energy Substations
Wednesday, October 9, 2013
Paul Pabst
S&C Electric
About the Topic
SCADA, or Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, is a way to
remotely monitor and control substations. Information such as MW
plant output, breaker statuses, fault information, and diagnostics can
be sent from the generation site to a centrally located control
center, allowing convenience of monitoring and saving time and money
in operating costs. This presentation will go over the purpose of
SCADA, how it is applied in renewable energy systems, the benefits,
and common practices amongst utility owned as well as developer-owned
renewable energy systems.
